Glossybox and Boudoir Prive Beauty Boxes

I just wanted to do a quick blog and let you know I contacted GlossyboxUK on Twitter today and asked when their shipping the June boxes and I was told "We start shipping at the beginning of next week", so I had to share this with you.

Unfortunately, I missed out on the very first box by 2 days, because I hadn't heard about it quick enough *sad face*

To sum it up quickly Glossybox is very similar to Birchbox in the US but it's for the UK and it launched in May. It costs £10.00 a month including postage and you receive a 4-5 beauty products, they could be makeup, haircare or skincare. The surprise is opening the box to see what you receive - Glossybox choose items for you. Think of it like a lucky dip.

I think it's great and wish we'd had this years ago!

I think if you signup now for your first glossybox you won't get a box until August because these boxes are proving very popular. Don't worry if you've already subscribed you'll still get your glossybox every month.

In the May glossybox the fullsize item was a Nars Orgasm [30ml], which costs approximately £20 so you definitely get value for money!

Also there's another UK beauty box company called Boudoir Prive and being the greedy girl I am I've signed up for both. The first box launches in July, but this box may have sold out too. Costs £10.00 a month including postage for 5-6 products.

Hot foot it over to their sites to read more and sign-up etc.

If you've any questions, please check their facebook pages to see if an answer to your question has already been posted, if not write on their wall, or tweet them (links below) and they'll respond when they can.

I'm not an employee of glossybox or boudoir prive. I'm a makeup fan whose excited about beauty box subscriptions and I wanted to share the news about the shipping of (my first), the second glossybox and news on Boudoir Prive also launching next month.
